What is a good way to track javascript execution, how does this happen (but skip jQuery)?

Question

I want to execute javascript how this happens, but skip the steps where the functions are in jQuery.

Can this be done?

Answer 1

You can use Step Over when debugging. Step Over simply proceeds to the next line of code without going to the called method. This will allow you not to switch to the jQuery method.

What you probably used is Step Into , which moves on to the next line of code to be executed. This forces you to switch to the jQuery method when debugging.

In Google Chrome and Firefox (with Firebug), the Step Over and Step Into buttons are next to each other, just make sure you click the right one.

Answer 2

Using Firebug javascript tracing, you can "step over" function calls with F10 and "exit" the function body with the corresponding icon if you accidentally entered a jQuery function.

Answer 3

Yes, use breakpoints.
